Who doesn’t love a good party, especially a costume party. But, what happens when the costume you choose doesn’t live up to it’s name, and the intent doesn’t translate well in the final result. In the case of R&B songstress Ciara and her goth, vampire-esque inspired Givenchy outift for the “Bal de Vampires” event held in Paris [in celebration of the release of "Irreverent", a book by former French Vogue Editirix Carine Rotfield], what happens when goth goes wrong, or bad costumes happen to good people? Either way, I’ll let you decide. Did Ciara let inner vampire take the night, or do you wonder why she didn’t sink her teeth into a completely different neckline?

Below are a few more celebrities and their looks from the “Bal de Vampires” event.
